Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 257

After Josie returned to the office, she could not calm down after a long time. "Clusia Media Group...belongs to Samuel?" she thought.

Josie did not believe it at first. However, the more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt.

When Madelyn was framed by Ashley and fired from her original company, Josie blamed herself. However, Madelyn soon found a better job and officially joined Clusia Media Group.

At that time, Josie was relieved, thinking, "Thank goodness Madelyn got a blessing in disguise and found a better job!"

After that, Samuel had always been patiently around Josie. He constantly took care of her and looked after her.

After Josie's original company had fired her for various random reasons, Madelyn and the Human Resource Department of Clusia Media Group approached her. After considering it for a long time, Josie formally decided to join Clusia Media Group.

When Josie thought of it, everything had gone too smoothly.

However, Samuel had taken extra precautions to not hurt her ego by not giving her any preferential treatment.

Josie smiled helplessly, thinking, "I had troubled him so much. However, I don't think he distrusts me as Matilda said. I wouldn't have joined the company if Samuel had told me he owned Clusia Media Group. Samuel understood my character, so he hid the truth from me."

"Jo, what are you eating for lunch?" When it was time for the lunch break, Madelyn approached Josie.

"Samuel said he would bring me out for lunch during the afternoon." Josie arranged the files in her hands.

Rebecca, Jessica, and Sebastian were all on the set. Thus, Josie needed to consider the trio's future career progression in advance.

"All right. You guys can go ahead. I don't want to be a third wheel." Madelyn seemed excited, leaving while humming a song.

Josie was speechless. Ever since Madelyn started dating, she became even more cheerful than usual.

"Josie. Someone from Gibson Corporation called as they wanted to discuss Ashley's comeback with you," Josie's assistant came to ask for her opinion.

Josie frowned and wondered, "So Ashley will have a comeback? What exactly is Henry thinking? He knows about her scandals, yet he's still trying his best to support her. Did he have a plan in mind?"

"I'll contact the person in charge of Gibson Corporation. Thank you."

Downstairs, Samuel was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window in the rest area. As the sunshine shone on his body, one would be unable to shift their gaze away from his warm appearance.

Josie walked over and sat opposite him.

Samuel held Josie's wrist and smiled. "Let's go. I'll take you to eat something delicious."

"Matilda came to the company today." However, Josie had no intention to leave.

Samuel was stunned for a moment. "She..."

"Why did she still come to Clusia Media Group? Didn't I already inform them not to sign Matilda?" he wondered.

"She said that the person in charge of Clusia Media Group is actually you." Josie did not hide, for she knew some things could be better solved by talking it out.

Samuel's breath hitched as he looked at Josie nervously, not knowing how to explain for a moment.

Seeing how nervous Samuel was, Josie smiled lightly. "Is it because of your partnership that you cannot reveal your status to the public?"

"N-No." Samuel looked away nervously as if he had made a mistake. "Josie!" After a long silence, Samuel grabbed her wrist anxiously. "About this... I didn't mean to hide it from you. I felt you would never agree to join the company if I told you. At that time...you had refused everyone's kindness."

Josie thought about it carefully. At that time, she had not fully gotten over her previous marriage. Thus, she would indeed resist his kindness. "That's right." She nodded.

If Samuel directly said that he owned Clusia Media Group, Josie would have never accepted the offer.

"Josie, I'm sorry..." Samuel was not good at explaining, so he could only apologize first. "However, don't push me away just by hearing others' words."

Josie smiled and held Samuel's fingers. "I'm just confused. There's no need to make things complicated."
